Chapter 140: Movie Trivial
However, Zhou Yu thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
If the population of Great Xia were to be reduced by seventy or eighty percent at once, and most of the rest were concentrated in developed areas, a large area of wilderness would probably be vacated.
Of course, the population issue has nothing to do with Zhou Yu. He couldn't be relevant.
It's just a few words.
Two hours later, the plane arrived in Xiangjiang.
Qu Jing and Fang Tingting were already waiting here first. The team of Yiyuan Media, as well as the three old experts invited by Jian Lin, also arrived in Xiangjiang one step ahead of Zhou Yu.
Skipping Lin Zekai's hospitality, he stayed in Xiangjiang for another day, and the next day, a cadre from Yiyuan Media, a cadre from Xiangjiang Xu Ke, and a cadre from Xiangjiang accompanied Zhou Yu to take the Jade Seal special plane and went straight to Los Angeles.
This time I returned to the United States, there were twenty or thirty more people, but there was less Anji.
Anji is not in Xiangjiang at all at this time - earlier, she first went to Yangcheng, and then transferred to Xiacheng and Xiangcheng, and at this time, she is in the Western Capital.
It is estimated that I will not be able to run for two or three months.
Zhou Yu was slightly unhappy, but Anji enjoyed it.
Some people are naturally lazy and don't want to do anything. But some people have to be busy to have a sense of existence and feel valuable.
The team of Yiyuan Media, plus Xu Ke and others, plus the original crew on the plane, and Zhou Yu, etc., the total number of people exceeded 50.
But there's no such thing as not being able to fit it.
Although the interior of the aircraft is different from the commercial operation of the airline, it is not the kind of row of shriveled seats. But a thirty-meter-long plane, for fifty people, is still more than enough.
At this time, some people either go to the lounge to read a book and read the newspaper, or go for a walk in the gym, or just chat in the bar, and some close their eyes on the sofa.
And Zhou Yu was sitting around with three old experts and Xu Ke and others, talking about related movies.
"The producer of the film is Paramount, and the producer is sent by Paramount." Zhou Yu leaned back against the soft sofa, and almost half of the whole person fell into it, his hands interlocked and placed between his chest and abdomen.
"The director is Mr. Xu Ke. There are two assistant directors, one of whom is Mr. Jiang. His gaze fell on Jiang Wen next to him.
Jiang Wen is the mainland director recommended by Jian Lin.
Zhou Yu doesn't care what relationship Jiang Wen has with Jian Lin, why Jian Lin recommends him, he just needs to know that Jiang Wen is capable.
In fact, up to now, Zhou Yu's actions have pushed this unfilmed movie to the first trend. Regardless of the cost, Paramount took the lead, coupled with the cooperation between Hong Kong filmmakers, mainland filmmakers and Hollywood, and the full support of the tycoon Zhou Yu, even if filming has not yet started, it is already a gimmick.
Even if this movie is shot in the end and does not achieve the desired effect, the fame must be leveraged!
Therefore, the people involved, good and bad, can be gilded with a layer of brilliance.
"Another assistant director is also in place." Zhou Yu said again: "Peter Jackson." I think you all should know this, the director of blockbusters such as the Lord of the Rings series and King Kong. ”
"In terms of grandeur, I think this one suits my requirements very well."
Xu Ke and the others bowed slightly. Whether it is the Lord of the Rings or King Kong, in terms of the scene, it can be said to be magnificent. The Lord of the Rings, in particular, is very big.
But at the same time, there is also some apprehension in my heart - especially Xu Ke. When it comes to his status in the world of directors, Peter Jackson is stronger than him. But now, he's the director, and Peter is the assistant director.
Not to mention what Peter would think in his heart, there was a kind of pressure that fell on him, so that Xu Ke had to brace himself and deal with it carefully.
"I'll explain all the requirements for this film, or all the requirements for the film I want to shoot in the future. The first, such as this film with a historical background, must follow historical facts and not talk nonsense. Second, the scene has to be set up. Since this movie is based on war, the scenes of 100,000 or hundreds of thousands of people fighting cannot be ambiguous. To make this scene, real crowd performances are indispensable, and computer stunts are indispensable. Third, in terms of time, I don't have too many requirements, but I can't be too procrastinating, I can't shoot it in three or two years, that's not good. I'm also going to invest in filming one or two films every year in the future, if I can't come out in three or two years, my hair will be gray by the time I wait! ”
The crowd couldn't help but chuckle.
"If you want to shoot well, you can't lose speed, and as for money, it's not a problem at all. If you can solve it with money, don't delay time. ”
Zhou Yu stretched out his finger and said seriously.
A cadre of people and so on are said to be.
Zhou Yu nodded, his eyes fell on the three experts, and his tone slowed down: "The three old men are all experts in history, the movie follows historical facts, and the way of speaking, behavior, etiquette, clothing, etc., depends on the three old men to check it." ”
"Of course, where you need to be flexible, you can't bite the bullet. For example, language. If you don't explain what you said at that time, if you don't explain it, I'm afraid not many people will understand it. ”
The three old experts each bowed slightly, and one of them smiled: "Although our old teeth have fallen out, we are not the kind of stubborn stones that do not know how to change. After all, movies are different from history books, and we old guys still know it. Xiao Zhou, you can rest assured. ”
"It's good that the old man can understand." Zhou Yu said with a smile.
"So in terms of the script..."
When Xu Ke heard this, he said: "I have already discussed the script with someone and built a big framework. If there is something inappropriate, I will discuss it with the two assistant directors and these old brothers. ”
"What about the characters?" Zhou Yu asked again: "Who are the main characters?" Is there already a candidate? ”
"The actor of the actor Huo Quzhi has not yet been determined, as for Wei Qing, I think Zhidan can play this role. Aaron can be qualified for the role of Li Guang. And Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che," Speaking of this, he frowned slightly: "The emperor is not good at acting, and those who have that acting skills are now mostly in their sixties and seventies, such as Cheng Daoming, such as Bao Guoan, Tang Guoqiang, etc., but their age is much older than that of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty during Huo Qu's illness, and they are not sure if they can be invited." ”
Zhou Yu bowed slightly, but said: "Among the actors of the Mesozoic or new generation, is there no suitable one?" ”
Xu Ke touched the short beard under his chin and shook his head slowly: "If it's perfunctory, then there's nothing to say, just choose one." But to do it well, you have to have those few people. ”
"The current Mesozoic generation, especially the new generation, let them play some love and love, no problem. But the emperor's bearing, these people can't imitate just in case. ”
Zhou Yu couldn't help but groan, and then said: "Since this is the case, the candidate should choose one from the older generation of film and television predecessors... doesn't have that kind of acting skills, and it's also ridiculous and generous to take it out. ”
"I'll try my best, I hope to have one of them." Xu Ke nodded.
"In addition to these main and more important male roles, in terms of female roles, I prefer Gong Li to play Empress Wei, and Fan Binbin can play Chen Ajiao."
"As for the Huns, Yi Zhi is oblique and single, I think Ma Jingtao may be suitable."
He said eloquently: "And the race of the Xiongnu has been inconclusive. Especially the Xiongnu headquarters. Historical records say that it is a descendant of the Xia Hou clan, and it is also said that it is a descendant of Xia Wei, so we take it as a yellow race. However, in addition to the Luan clan in the Xiongnu, there were many other tribes conquered by war, and many of these other tribes were Caucasian races with high noses and deep eyes. This part of the cast can be selected from Hollywood..."
Zhou Yu listened, and shook his head again and again - Xu Ke did the work. At least, I have a rough idea of the general situation during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
The old experts on the side also nodded slightly, and one of them said: "The Luan clan of the Xiongnu headquarters should be a yellow race." Although there is no tangible evidence for this fact. We agree with Director Xu's opinion. ”
...
After talking with Xu Ke and others for two or three hours, Zhou Yu mainly listened to them and listened to their arguments. In particular, the old experts and Xu Ke and others argued about the design of some plots. It mainly focuses on whether certain episodes are in line with the historical facts of the time.
Seeing their contention, Zhou Yu quietly left, went to the bar and asked people to pour a glass of wine and drink it by himself.
After a while, Qu Jing and Fang Tingting came to their side.
"Brother Yu~~ I also want a role." Qu Jing pulled Zhou Yu's arm and shook it vigorously, looking at him with big eyes very longingly.
Zhou Yu laughed and said to the service staff behind the bar: "Give them a drink too." ”
Then he turned his head: "Have that confidence?" ”
"Oh..." Qu Jing pursed her lips and nodded hesitantly: "It should be possible... I think in the past six months, I have learned a lot at USC, and the main role may not be competent, but the average should be able, right? Brother Yu, let me try. ”
Zhou Yu didn't answer her words, but said to Fang Tingting: "What about you?" ”
"I want to learn from the crew." Fang Tingting said: "I know the process of behind-the-scenes work. But knowing is knowing, and in order to apply it, it needs to be practiced. ”
Zhou Yu bowed slightly: "That's it." Tingting's practice in the crew was decided. As for Jingjing... Just participate in a supporting role, you will definitely not be able to play the leading role, and if you don't play it well, it will have a negative impact. However, there is a long way to go, and there will be opportunities in the future. ”
The two girls bent their eyebrows and laughed.
Qu Jing pouted: "I still want to play the leading role, but I know that with Brother Yu, there will be many opportunities in the future." Besides, I've just started my college course, so I can't afford to delay too much. ”
"It's good to know." Zhou Yu nodded Qu Jing's little nose: "Enriching yourself is the king." ”
"It's the same with Tingting." Zhou Yu added: "Although practice is the best way to learn, the systematic theoretical knowledge in the university is also very important. The integration of the two is the most correct path. ”
"Say what?" At this time, Tina walked over in a tight-fitting tracksuit, with a white towel on her shoulders and a slight sweat stain on her forehead between her sideburns.
"Give me a beer." Tina said to the bar and sat down on the other side of Zhou Yu.
"Talk about movies." Zhou Yu stretched out his hand and brushed a few strands of sweat-stained hair on Tina's forehead behind her ear, and said, "Jingjing wants to play a supporting role, and Tingting wants to intern with the crew." (To be continued.) )
